USA Triathlon (USAT) is the national governing body for the multisport disciplines of triathlon, duathlon, aquathlon and winter triathlon in the United States. USA Triathlon is a member federation of the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee and the World Triathlon. Victoria Brumfield is the chief executive officer and Joel Rosinbum is the chair. Its headquarters are in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

USA Triathlon sanctions more than 4,300 races every year with nearly 400,000 members.[1] It is composed of athletes of all ages, coaches, officials, parents and fans working to strengthen multisport.

USA Triathlon coordinates and sanctions grassroots and elite multisport events across the country and works to create interest and participation in those programs.[2]

On the elite level, USA Triathlon is responsible for the selection and training of teams to represent the United States in international competition, including the world championships, Pan American Games, Olympic and Paralympic Games.[3] It conducts national camps and clinics and provides coaching education programs.

On the developmental level, USA Triathlon fosters grassroots expansion of the sport, which is facilitated by the sanctioning of age-group events and triathlon clubs. National Championship events are held for athletes of all ages, including youth and junior athletes. USA Triathlon's marquee event each year is its Age Group National Championships, held annually since 1982. Each year, the USA Triathlon Age Group National Championships draws over 5,000 registered participants.[4]

USA Triathlon's mission is to grow and inspire the triathlon community. USA Triathlon's vision is to provide the resources required for all in the triathlon community to reach their full potential.[5]
